>>Who's job is it? That line scares me... Chris: During this time while we are waiting on UC, why not blow off some of this steam by sharing with us your top 10 (or 25, or 50) domains which you consider the most abusive, but would generate enough FPs to stay out of SURBL. This list might be those which you would be most excited about having in U.C. By getting this list now, some of us could then place these in our local blocklists :) Rob McEwen

RE: arscenic.info blacklisted domain
by Chris Santerre 24 Nov '04

Greetings Quentin, Something is seriously wrong with your setup. arscenic.info is NOT listed in ANY of these SURBL lists! You can even try the simple: ping arscenic.info.ws.surbl.org you won't get a 127.0.0.x in return. Or you can do a lookup here: http://www.rulesemporium.com/cgi-bin/uribl.cgi HTH, Chris Santerre System Admin and SARE Ninja http://www.rulesemporium.com http://www.surbl.org 'It is not the strongest of the species that survives, not the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.'

Jeff owes me a cookie! I've had lots of these submitted, but without decent checking, they go unlisted. Its a manpower issue. He wanted to reduce FPs, which increases time to get listed. Snowballs, and some domains gather dust. :( I like oatmeal rasin, and Milanos! ---Chris

RE: [SURBL-Discuss] general questions.....
by Chris Santerre 24 Nov '04

*BIG SNIP* Well even us on SURBL differ as to classification at times :) Jeff and I are a prime example. I know and understand Jeff's philosophy. However I think if plumbing fixture inc sends out a newsletter to a purchased list, or a hired marketing firm does it, then they SHOULD be listed. Call it an education in email usage. When they contact to get off the list, we educate and remove. No biggy. It is not hard at all to be removed from SURBL if you are legit. We have seen numerous times a legit company sending a newsletter to a spamtrap. Numerous reasons and excuses. But they never would have known about it if they were not listed. And I think if they send to a spamtrap we have a right to list. Regardless of how legit, it is a wakeup call because obviously something went wrong to send to a spamtrap. Now I can't go doing this, in respect to Jeff's wishes. However on the UC list I'm free to be as nutty as I want to be :) No UC isn't ready for prime time yet. Part of the problem is making sure I don't fall behind in WS work. --Chris

more followup
by Steven Champeon 23 Nov '04

Having poked around some more, it seems that 1086 of those in Bill's list are IP addresses. Roughly 60 of these were already blacklisted here, and I've added the rest to my local ip bl. -- join us! http://hesketh.com/about/careers/web_designer.html join us! hesketh.com/inc. v: +1(919)834-2552 f: +1(919)834-2554 w: http://hesketh.com join us! http://hesketh.com/about/careers/account_manager.html join us!

comparison of my local blacklist w/ws
by Steven Champeon 23 Nov '04

23 Nov '04

I've just grabbed Bill's list of domains and compared it to my local domains blacklist, with some interesting results. The following is a breakdown (expressed in line counts, each line representing a domain) of the similarities and differences. 27546 comparelists.intersection 155709 comparelists.notboth 117662 comparelists.onlyin.localbl 38046 comparelists.onlyin.sa-blacklist.current.domains 183256 comparelists.union Quick interpretation: my local blacklist has 117662 domains not listed in SURBL. Bill's file has 38046 domains not listed in mine. We only have 27546 domains in common. The counts are a bit off, I realize, as I've got a few entries that I've simply commented out as well as a comment or two. I've posted the files here: http://hesketh.com/schampeo/surbl/comparelists.intersection http://hesketh.com/schampeo/surbl/comparelists.notboth http://hesketh.com/schampeo/surbl/comparelists.onlyin.localbl http://hesketh.com/schampeo/surbl/comparelists.onlyin.sa-blacklist.current.… http://hesketh.com/schampeo/surbl/comparelists.union In case anyone wants to grab and poke around at these. Note that nospammerinhisrightmindwouldusethisdomain.com is just something I threw in for testing purposes, and well, should be obvious as to its farcical nature. -- join us! http://hesketh.com/about/careers/web_designer.html join us! hesketh.com/inc. v: +1(919)834-2552 f: +1(919)834-2554 w: http://hesketh.com join us! http://hesketh.com/about/careers/account_manager.html join us!

Suggestion for surbl-checker on rulesemporium
by Martin 23 Nov '04

23 Nov '04

Hi, I have a suggestion for the surbl-checker att rulesemporium.com. What do you think of adding a date when a certain link were added to the surbl list(s). My users report spam not catched in a public folder on our server, once a day i submit all reported spam to the surbl-checker to see if it's blocked or not. Most of the time the spam are blocked, but it would be nice if i could see a date/time when the link was blocked. :) Thanks in advance / Martin

ws updating again
by Jeff Chan 23 Nov '04

23 Nov '04

The problems with ws.surbl.org not updating for the past day or so have been corrected. It looks like there was a bug in the updated rsync or linux distro that Bill had installed on his server. When he reverted back to an earlier version, rsync started working correctly again. Jeff C. -- "If it appears in hams, then don't list it."
